    Local store has tons of 2013 cases left. Just picked up a sixer for the cellar.

    I like the Ten FIDY.

    But I have a few items waiting in the wings that have been mentioned, including Marshal Zhukov and Plead the 5th. Can't wait to try those.

    That announcement is what got me starting this thread... I am pumped, but need to get my hands on the non-barrel version first!

    Everyone seems to be going for the heavier, more viscous stuff here.

    I'll nominate an Irish Dry Stout: Gritty McDuff's Black Fly Stout. Average (at best) brewery, but that one beer is one of, if not THE, best Irish Dry I've ever had.

    Old engine oil - think this is a porter?

    Mikkeller - George deserves a mention here, unless mikkeller has added anything to it...

    I really enjoyed Green Flash Double Stout. Great flavor without having the roastiness be in your face.

    Big Black VooDoo Daddy has been my favorite so far.

    Really wanna try Zhukov soon though.
